I’m a 35 year old IT professional living in the mid-western United States.  I’m a constant reader of business news (CNBC, Bloomberg), and other financial blogs (MrMoneyMustache.com, BudgetsAreSexy.com).  I don’t hold any certifications or licenses in the financial industry – I’m just a guy who loves to budget and treats personal finance as a hobby.

This blog is setup to track my goals to help hold myself accountable – and to watch my path achieving FIRE: Financial Independence and Retiring Early.
